Days later, he’s dead—his body broken, his ribs shattered. The official response? “These things happen.” In this episode, Matt Bodett and Megan Sterling uncover two of Dunning’s final and most chilling scandals. The first is the brutal death of George Pucik, an immigrant wrongfully institutionalized, beaten to death, and discarded. The second? A macabre tale of stolen bodies, smuggled from the asylum morgue under cover of night, with whispers of a secret “killer ward” where the unclaimed simply… disappeared. As political cover-ups tighten their grip and officials silence whistleblowers, one thing becomes clear: the corruption at Dunning wasn’t just about greed—it was about power, and who society deemed disposable. This is the final chapter in the Dunning series, but its echoes remain. Some histories refuse to stay buried.
